...
providers: [
  CognitoProvider({
    clientId: process.env.COGNITO_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: process.env.COGNITO_CLIENT_SECRET,
    issuer: process.env.COGNITO_ISSUER,
  })
]

The issuer is a URL, that looks like this: https://cognito-idp.{region}.amazonaws.com/{PoolId}

PoolId is from General Settings in Cognito, not to be confused with the App Client ID.
